Misheard music lyrics, Misunderstood song lyrics. With the often fast-talking Red Hot Chili Peppers' new album release, we were reminded of songs we've sung forever, only to find out we've been belting out the wrong lyrics. Did you know this phenomenon actually has a name? Misheard lyrics are called mondegreens. Read on to see some of the most common mondegreens to top the music charts.

Abba "Dancing Queen"

The Europop disco anthem drew inspiration from George McCrae's 1974 hit "Rock Your Baby. " The original working title was "Boogaloo. " ABBA's manager eventually came up with the final title. ABBA Dancing Queen

The Beatles "Michelle". This is a lovely song to an apparently lovely woman. To whom did The Beatles write it? No one in particular. They chose the name because it sounded good and rhymed well with other words.

Bee Gees "More Than a Woman". This disco tune is different from most others because its focus is not about dancing. The singer discovers new love for a woman and he just wants to shout it to the world.

Misheard lyric: "We can take forever just a minute at a time, bald-headed woman." Bee Gees More Than A Woman

The Black Eyed Peas "Just Can't Get Enough". Band member apl.de.ap said this tune is the follow up to another chart topper. This sequel has "a different tempo and it's also paying homage to the ladies. It's a love song," he said.

The Beatles "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds". Did you know there was a real Lucy? John Lennon's son came back with a drawing he had made of his classmate named Lucy, pictured among stars and with the eventual song title also written on the page. The identity of Lucy was revealed in 2009.

Misheard lyric: "Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly; That girl with colitis goes by." The Beatles Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds.

blink-182 "What's My Age Again?". The original song title was "Peter Pan Complex." Can you interpret the song's meaning from that? Blink's Mark Hoppus wrote the song after having been told often by women that he was immature. By the end of the song, his interpretation of that statement is clear.

Creedence Clearwater Revival "Bad Moon Rising". These lyrics were inspired by a movie about hurricane destruction. The classic misheard lyric below is something that even band singer John Fogerty has slipped into performances.

Miley Cyrus "Party in the USA". Smiley Miley didn't even seem to identify with the hit's lyrics. When asked by a reporter about Jay-Z, Cyrus responded: "I've never heard of a Jay-Z song."

Misheard lyric: "With a dream and my cardigan; Welcome to the land of fame and sex." Miley Cyrus Party In The U.S.A.

Def Leppard "Pour Some Sugar on Me". The lyrics of this track are a little risqué, but throughout the song they're so cloaked in metaphor that it was easy to get it on radio and MTV. Lead singer Joe Elliott came up with the title of the song from the end of a tune by this band.

Bob Dylan "Blowin' in the Wind". You will never guess how long it took Dylan to write this song -- 10 minutes. He wrote the words to the melody of an old slave song and first sang it at a nightclub in Greenwich Village.

Eiffel 65 "Blue". Band member Maurizio Lobina's explanation of the song title may not sound too complex at first: "I started thinking about this character I invented called Zoroti… Then I came up with a color, a color I thought described the way he saw things." But listen all the way through the track and we might want to take that statement back.

Misheard lyric: "I'm blue and I'm in need of a guy" and "I'm blue; if I were green, I would die."Eiffel 65 Blue (Da Ba Dee) (Extended Remix).

Elton John "Tiny Dancer". John's writing partner Bernie Taupin wrote the lyrics. The "blue jean baby" was Taupin's girlfriend, Maxine Feibelmann. A popular sitcom character once incorrectly sang the common mondegreen of this tune.

Fall Out Boy "Sugar, We're Going Down". Fall Out member Pete Wentz was in the car with his dad wondering why today's songs don't contain the" sugars" and "honeys" like they used to. This song simmers with jealousy, but the singer still refers to his dream girl as sweet.

Madonna "La Isla Bonita". If you speak Spanish, you'll know that Madge is singing about "the beautiful island." The name of the island is San Pedro, but it doesn't really exist. In a 2009 interview with Rolling Stone Madonna confessed, "I don't know where [the name] came from. I may have been on the way to the studio and seen an exit ramp for San Pedro."

Misheard lyric: "Just like I'd never gone, I knew the song; A young girl with eyes like potatoes." Madonna La Isla Bonita.

Nickelback "How You Remind Me". Lead singer Chad Kroeger said the song is about his dysfunctional relationship with an ex-girlfriend. By keeping the lyrics ambiguous, many people were able to relate to the heartbreak of the song.

Misheard lyric: "And it must have been so bad; Those little women must have damn near killed you." Nickelback How You Remind Me.

Nirvana "Smells Like Teen Spirit". A young woman’s toiletry inspired the name of this hit. Singer Kurt Cobain had a romance with Bikini Kill member Tobi Vail and after a night of drinking, other member Kathleen Hanna spray-painted "Kurt Smells like Teen Spirit" on his bedroom wall.

Misheard lyric: "With the lights out, it's less dangerous; Here we are now, in containers." Nirvana Smells Like Teen Spirit.

Katy Perry "I Kissed a Girl". Perry has revealed that the song was inspired by a friendship she had with a girl at the age of 15. Although Perry didn't actually kiss her, she was "totally obsessed with her. She was beautiful—porcelain skin, perfect lips. I still talk to her, but I've never told her the song is about her."

Misheard lyric:"It felt so wrong, it felt so right; Don't need a pillow tonight." Katy Perry I Kissed A Girl.

The Police "Message in a Bottle". In this song, a castaway finds a bottle, puts a message in it and throws it out to sea in hopes that someone will find it and come save him. Read on to see how his cry for help plays out.

Misheard lyric: "A year has passed since I broke my nose." The Police Message In A Bottle.

Red Hot Chili Peppers "By the Way". The RHCP are a fun group. We start by telling you "By the Way" is just fun wordplay by lead singer Anthony Kiedis. The music video doesn't have anything to do with the song lyrics, but tells a completely different story. If you have time, search it and watch it.

R.E.M. "Sidewinder Sleeps Tonight". "The Lion King" fans might recognize the intro in this song, which has a strong resemblance to a tune by The Tokens. The sidewinder refers to the payphone and how its cord resembles a snake.
